Alan Faustino is a professional doctor of internal medicine that also has a passion for fishing that is second to none. He is among the many fisherman who is looking to improve their game and catch bigger fish faster. If you too are one of these people, one of the most important things that you can to get better is to learn about the many different behaviors and patterns of specific species. One popular species with unique behavior is the catfish.

A catfish is an easy fish to identify, as it has big whisker-like barbels sprouting out all around its mouth. Catfish are popular because they are known to get massive, up to 600 pounds for a Mekong giant catfish. Catfish are also found on every single continent with the exception of Antarctica, making them very abundant.

Catfish are characteristically slimy, and are bottom feeders because they do not have any teeth. Instead of chewing their prey, catfish simply gulp it up. Catfish are very sought after in the fishing community because of their size and how plentiful they are. Catfish are a main food staple in many places, especially Asia, where fish consumption is very prominent. Though there has never been any documented proof of a catfish killing a human, there are many people who believe that it is possible for some of the larger breeds. Some species even have stingers in their fins that can do serious damage if they are handled improperly.

Alan Faustino is a fishing fan and enthusiast that has been fishing ever since he was a child.
